Abandoned

by Jules Verne

A group of explorers in a hot-air balloon crash-land on a mysterious island, finding themselves stranded and alone. As they explore their surroundings, they stumble upon a bullet inside a wounded animal, indicating that they may not be the only inhabitants. Determined to uncover the island's secrets, they embark on a series of adventures, encountering strange creatures, discovering hidden treasures, and facing numerous challenges. Through their resilience and resourcefulness, they establish a colony, building shelters, creating tools, and establishing a sustainable way of life. Along the way, they unravel the mysteries of the island, encounter unexpected dangers, and forge unbreakable bonds of friendship.
